We regret to announce that after 26 years of supporting photographers and championing photography throughout the UK, Redeye, the Photography Network will wind down on 31 July 2024 due to a number of factors, including lack of funding.

Projection08 - special free network event

Tonight Redeye dims the lights and shows some of the best new work from the region and beyond, in the form of short slideshows. Much of the work is unseen and made specially for this evening. There's also a chance to network and chat over a drink. The venue is The Lowry, Salford Quays, M50 3AZ; it starts at 7pm.

Sarah Jones talk

26 January 2008, 00:00

Redeye is delighted to be partnering with The National Media Museum, Bradford, to present a talk by Sarah Jones on 26th January 2008 at 2pm. Sarah Jones's new exhibition, the result of her Fellowship in Photography at the museum, opens in October. Her work interweaves the figurative elements of portraiture and still-life to create works that are suffused by the events that preceded their taking. Talk tickets are £4; pre-booking at the Box Office is essential. Please call 0870 701 0200 to book.

Brian Harris Talk and Master Class

Brian Harris started out as a photographer in 1969 working for local papers then became a staff photographer on The Times in 1976. In 1986 he was appointed chief photographer of the Independent at its launch, and along with his colleagues played a leading role in the renaissance of inventive, offbeat British newspaper photography.

DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSIONS
Friday 11th January 2008

Rineke Dijkstra Talk

12 December 2007, 00:00

A key figure in contemporary portraiture, Rineke Dijkstra often chooses to photograph her subjects at times when their inner lives are most likely to be externalised. By isolating them using carefully controlled lighting and backgrounds, using a style that refers as much to old master painting as to contemporary photography, her subjects can seem vulnerable and off guard, and her work has a particular balance of strength and subtlety. She lives and works in Amsterdam and exhibits worldwide. See www.rinekedijkstra.net

Martin Parr Talk

28 November 2007, 00:00

It's impossible to ignore Martin Parr. One of the most important photographers of his generation, he is known around the world for redefining documentary photography. In an era when spin and vested interests are blurring the chains of control, he seeks out and photographs the true sources of social power - the disconnected middle and upper classes at home and at play. All this is done with wit, visual flair and occasional grotesquerie that continues to generate debate. He's a member of Magnum, and also supports photography by curating, editing and championing it.
